I've stripped my bathroom and done most of a re-fit. I want to replace an electric shower with a thermostatically controlled mixer shower. Hot water will be supplied by the boiler the cold comes off the rising main. I can't work out which shower I should buy, I was avoiding high pressure showers as my pressure is not great (I've no way of testing what the pressure is) but on looking at suggestions for combi showers on other sites they seem to assume that I would have high pressure.!.
I have a Baxi 105e fitted in 2001 which serves a 3 bedroom detached house. Kitchen, bathroom, utility room, 2 toilets one up one down which all have taps. The standalone shower is located in the bathroom.

Any advice on which shower to buy would be gratefully received.

If the incoming flow rate/ pressure isn't strong enough, it's unlikely that anyone would install a combi anyway. So, assuming that it will be adequate, any thermostatic mixer will do the trick and be far suparior to an electric shower.

bought one on ebay £210 delivered, (shop price £270). I missed one a couple of days earlier which went for £160....
Its now fitted and works well..I would prefer a bit more pressure but its adequate for our needs...

Thanks for the help.
